The research used random sampling techniques. The parameter of this research was the skill to think creatively with four indicators, namely fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Data were gathered through the use of a creative thinking test in the form of a multiple-choice consisting of 20 items. The data of Min, Nmax, Nmin, Sd, and the effectiveness of creative thinking were calculated with the interpretation of the N-gain index (g).
